my car is at it again......
a guy is on his way over right now to take some sound bites of my car that may be used in Need for Speed 2007, he is gonna take some from the engine, from the exhaust and some as I drive away shifting through the gears. I will get copies of the high rez sound clips which I will upload later today if I have time, and then if NFS decides they like what they hear they will use my car again on a dyno all mic'd up and it will be used in the game and I will get a copy of the game at that point.

So now driving a muscle car like a muscle car qualifies as abuse?
If the game and "coolness" of being featured in it aren't enough to outweigh the price of gas, free dyno time will.

no abuse I drove it, no differently then I normally do by the way, and it took all of 5 minutes of my time and less than a half gallon of gas at most.

by the way he had already taken clips from several other cars including BMWs, a couple of Ferraris, a Maseratti and an F50 (among the Ferraris) as well as some other cars and he said mine sounded the best, recorded the best and sounded real mean on the playback in his headset.

rrobello...sorry to be off topic, but what's up with that roush in your video? Is it some kind of optical illusion? I mean, the car's moving, but the wheels aren't.
oh...btw, nice car!

yes, it's because the frame rate on the camera is in synch with the wheel's.

Are they just using your car for a sound bite or are you going to wind up on the cover of the box like you did with the Megiures?
